BRENTWOOD, Tenn. and ORLANDO, Fla., May 17, 2012 /PRNewswire/ -- "Market-Proofing Your Career: Building Your Personal Brand in an Uncertain Economy," a presentation directed at career management for chief financial officers, will be presented by Ernst & Young Entrepreneur of the Year Jerry Bostelman, Vaco founder, at the Financial Executives International (FEI) Leadership Summit being held May 20-22, 2012 in Orlando, Fla.

According to Bostelman, who has led Vaco from its inception in 2002 to its current position as one of the nation's leading placement and consulting firms for financial executives, stated, "We have been through several tumultuous financial years and seem to be facing many more. A natural instinct in trying times is to circle the wagons and wait out the storm, however, this era favors the courageous. Those who embrace the transition are seizing tremendous opportunities to lead and advance that just don't exist in more placid times."

Bostelman's presentation will be given on Monday, May 21, at 7:30 AM.

He continued, "The FEI conference theme is Fact vs. Fairytale and our discussion fits right in. The fact is in more perilous times the CFO is the hero so many organizations depend on to lead them to their fairy tale ending. Our conversation centers around making sure our CFOs are prepared for the journey, outpacing the competition and positioning them to get the call."

Bostelman's presentation will explore:

The current state of the economy and how it impacts CFOs
The six steps to CFO stardom
Communicating you
Building your brand
Going viral
